  9. 8 days post op and I'm able to drink more than 4( 11 oz )protein shakes and more than 64 Oz of water a day.

    Liquids pass right through the sleeve within a matter of seconds. I was lucky enough to get to watch my barium swallow test on a live x-ray post-op and it was literally just straight through my sleeve, like pouring Water through a hose. The only reason some people experience restriction with fluids in the early days post-op is because some people have significant swelling and inflammation in their sleeve and/or esophagus. Trust and believe that you will feel SIGNIFICANT restriction once you are onto more substantial foods. Such a relief.thank you Sent from my SM-N920T using the BariatricPal App
